Formula 1 - 2017 Season

[Bludd]

F1 needs to learn from Indycar and America's Cup. Live on youtube is awesome.

Pics of the upgrades to the W08 emerge. Looks like a bold step.
Another one here.

Yeah, it's really going great! I expect Alonso to be fighting for the win this weekend!

Alonso also said on team radio that "the engine feels good, but it's even slower than before, amazing"

Lewis Hamilton top in Spanish Grand Prix practice with upgraded Mercedes

Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas secured a Mercedes one-two in second practice at the Spanish Grand Prix, comfortably clear of the Ferraris.
Hamilton was 0.09 seconds quicker than his team-mate but 0.310secs clear of the Ferrari of Kimi Raikkonen, who was 0.118secs ahead of
Sebastian Vettel.

All the teams have brought major aerodynamic upgrades to this race, but the one on the Mercedes is the most visually dramatic, with a new narrower nose and a number of other major changes, and so far it appears to be having a significant effect.

Fins doing what fins do best. Crashing into others.

Don't blame Kimi for what Valtteri did.

Don't blame Kimi for what Valtteri did.

Not sure where you think he blamed Kimi for anything.

 

[Kaotik]

Not sure where you think he blamed Kimi for anything.

He used plural meaning both Fins "did what they do best, crashing into others" (which itself is rather humorous, since I'm pretty sure the finns are in reality among the lowest accident prone (on the causing side) drivers in the series despite couple clashes to each other)

 

[jacozz]

Congrats to Ferrari and Kimi!
So nice to see Kimi back on top!
Fingers crossed for tomorrows race.

 

[Kaotik]

Kimi on top and Hamilton 14th, wth happened there Mercedes, you borrowed a page from Ferrari's "How to ruin Kimi's qualifying" book?

edit: It was Vandoornes crash apparently

 

[Bludd]

It was great to see Kimi up there beating the finger. I fear team orders tomorrow, but let's see what happens.

Also great seeing McLaren having a good day (except for Stoffel's error). As Martin Brundle said, there are only two types of F1 drivers: those that have crashed at Monaco and those that have yet to crash at Monaco.

Okay wrong 12. But damn, sports websites should all use "convert to your local timezone" buttons. I don't use the official formula 1 website a lot but the best thing on there is a button to convert all race starts to local time.
